  Multiplication and division are the only parts needing any real 
work, most of it is very simple. As mentioned i have my library 
written, though i suppose i'd have to fight a bit with github 
that i never quite got working before when doing bitmanip 
bitfields.

  Though, if int128 just forwards calls to my library that would 
be far easier to implement while keeping the assembly code... 
I'll see about tinkering with this.
